Make yourself familiar
with the angels, and behold them frequently in spirit; for without being seen they are present with you.

What's Doing Wednesday

Yarn, yarn and more yarn! Grannies, grannies and more grannies! Isn't that just grand!

The daisy granny is really a fun pattern to work up. Its easy and a pattern that seems to just work itself, its that easy. A good one for TV time. Have about half the squares done, a third of them joined now.

The red granny has taken over the dining room with half of those squares joined as well. Its still a little too warm to work with this for too long a time so its my go to now and then project. It makes me smile, its just that happy!

I am still undecided which pattern to use for the baby boy blanket needed for November. These are my two choices. Deciding on whether the squares will be small or larger ones.

And, of course, you don't think I could browse around and not come up with another have to have ... I am head over heels for this which I found the other day. You can see more about it at Fiddlesticks.

As you can see, my project of choice at the moment .... g r a n n i e s ...

Your daisy squares look so beautiful! I love the colors you are choosing! It's so fund and addictive making granny squares, isn't it? Thanks for sharing the link, I will check it out!You have a great day, too!LS x

Hey there, Glor! Well, I was still getting that silly message, so I came to visit you through IE rather than Chrome and all is well. Thank goodness! I love all your grannies -- especially that red one. For the baby boy blanket, why don't you do a mix of those lovely patterns? Would make it quite unique. I love the grany sampler crochet along going on over at Wise Craft. I don't know why choosing colors for projects throws me for a loop when I have every color imaginable mixed together in my ownn home. :) Hope all is well with you and that you are having a great week. All the best, Tammy

Fiddlesticks' blanky is calling me! I love all of yours. You are like I am in regards to grannies. I am actually working on a circular pillow (long pillow that's round) cover for my oldest grand daughter for her birthday in October. I meant to take a pic of it last night but didn't. I only have a few more inches to finish it before I assemble it. I've been trying to get in gear in my head for Christmas. I've already been receiving emails with Christmas stuff in them.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph, I love you very much. I beg you to spare the life of the preborn child that I have spiritually adopted who is in danger of abortion.

Today is special ...

Today is God's gift to you, how you use it is your gift to God

Before the Threshold of My Day

I've much to do today, dear Lord,But let me kneel a bitBefore the threshold of my dayThat I may enter itWith mind serene andheart made freshwith fragrant heavenly dew.That every moment of the dayI'll be reflecting you.

May today there be peace within.
May you trust that you are exactly
where you are meant to be.
May you not forget the infinite possibilities
that are born of faith in yourself and others.
May you use the gifts that you have received,
and pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be content with yourself just the way
you are.

Let this knowledge settle into your bones,
and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance,
praise and love. It is there for each and
every one of us.
